Description

I am pleased to be here today as you examine issues related to food and agriculture emergencies. Agriculture is critical to public health and the nation’s economy. It annually produces $300 billion worth of food and other farm products and is estimated to be responsible for 1 out of every 12 U.S. jobs. As a result, any natural or deliberate disruption of the agriculture or food production systems—including natural disasters, disease outbreaks, and food contamination—can present a serious threat to the national economy and human health and can halt or slow trade. The food and agriculture systems are also vulnerable to terrorist attacks, such as the intentional introduction of a foreign animal or plant disease or the intentional contamination of food products.
